560: David Eichelberger on working with intention

Written By Ben Carter

David Eichelberger’s career has included time as a studio potter, professor, designer, and community educator. Today we focus on his personal studio practice hand-building serving platters and his role as designer for Two/One Ceramics alongside his wife, artist Elisa Di Feo. In our interview we discuss how working with bisque ring molds allows him to bring a new level of attention to his forms, as well as the collaborative aspects of design. In addition to his studio practice Eichelberger is the director of the Marlboro Studio School offering craft instruction in Marlboro, VT. twooneceramics.com Stream this episode in your browser.
